Hello all, I recently bought a DAP and I want to put music on it using my Apple Music subscription. I quickly found out that this isn’t possible, all music offered under Apple’s Music subscription is DRM-protected which means you can’t just get a file of a song and put it on an SD card. I searched the web and have possibly found a solution, it is a software called NoteBurner. It essentially bypasses the DRM protection and allows you to download all your music into different high-quality audio formats while keeping the original data (artist/album name, album cover, etc). I thought this was a bit suspect at first so I decided to download it and give it a try since they have a free version. After I downloaded the song using NoteBurner I loaded up Spek to authenticate the quality of the file. I have another file of the same song that I torrented a while ago that I used to compare, the uploader claims that it was a CD rip. The files look similar but I’m still doubtful. I’m not too experienced in this field so I was hoping I could get some advice on whether or not NoteBruner is legit and truly produces high-quality FLAC files from Apple Music. I’ll attach images of the spectrograms for 3 files, the CD rip, NoteBurner, and a free mp3 of the same song for comparison. The NoteBurner file is only 1 minute long because the free trial limits the time.
Sounds like bullshit to me.
I dont know any software that can rip apple lossless as their encryption is quite good on those.
